So, let's go!" Read more on the blog.

"Taking your significant other to New York or the Maldives for Valentine’s Day would most likely cost you thousands of dollars or euros.  And thanks to the pandemic it’s also not even an option for most of us.

Not so in Second Life, which has a great selection of hotels and resorts complete with five star service, luxury suites, amazing swimming pools, high end restaurants and pristine beaches.  And all that for less than the price of latte and sandwich from your local coffee shop,

As a result, here’s my pick for Valentine’s Day hotels.  These will of course also work for any other romantic break you might have planned throughout the year."

"I found Sindaria via a Scoop.it article that led me through to a Blog post about the Cyberpunk area of Sindaria. At the time of writing my previous post on Sindaria, I hadn’t fully read the said blog post, for which I owe the author an apology for seeming rather dismissive of it,when that wasn’t my intention.
